Cross-multiply them in pairs. The ratios are the same if and only if the answers are the same.
Thus a/b = c/d iff a*d = b*c.

How could you use the relationship between the numerator and denominator of fractions equivalent to one half to determine if a fraction is less than one half?
If the denominator is more than double the numerator, then the fraction is less than a half.
Are the ratios 5 dogs to 7 cats and 25 dogs to 35 cats equivalent?
YES! It is because 5x5=25 and than 5x7=35, so there you have it folks!
Why was the golden ratio widely used?
Because it was found to be more aesthetically pleasing to most people than other ratios.
What trigonometric ratios cannot be greater than one?
Sine and cosine.
What are 3 ratios that are equivalent to the ratio 3 4 and explain how you found the ratios?
If you simply multiply both numbers you will get another ratio just bigger than the one you currently have. eg: 3*2=6 4*2=8 Therefore 6:8 is the same as 3:4. Similarly 9:12 and 12:16
In financial analysis why does the analyst compute financial ratios rather than simply studying raw financial data?
In financial analysis the analyst compute financial ratios to determine the financial health of an financial institutoin rather than simply studying raw financial data.
What is the unit of cosine25?
Since trig functions are no more than ratios between the sides, it is unitless.

How do you tell if ratios are equivalent?
Ratios can be expressed as fractions. For example 1:7 can be written 1/7. Just as a fraction can be converted into an equivalent fraction by multiplying (or dividing) both the numerator and denominator by the same number then the same process can be applied to ratios. To compare two ratios then convert either the first or second number of the ratio so that both ratios have the same number. A direct comparison can then be made. EXAMPLE : 3:7 compared to 334 :777 If the figures in the first ratio are multiplied by 111 this makes the second number in both ratios the same. Then 3:7 is equivalent 333:777 which is not equal to 334:777 Equally, The second number in the second ratio could be divided by 111 in which case the comparison would then become 334:777 is equivalent to 3.009:7 which is not 3:7.
Why is popcorn a mixture?
Because it contains more than one elements, and the mass ratios among its elements are not constant from one sample of popcorn to another.
What is better a diesel or petrol engine?
It's more a question of "different", than "better". Petrol engines can have better power-to-weight ratios, while diesels are a little more efficient.
